54 – And I asked
him about the epidemic that occurs in the land, is it appropriate for the man
that he should flee from it?

He said: He flees
from it so long as it does not occur in his mosque that he prays in. So if it occurs amongst the people of his
mosque that he prays in, then fleeing from it is not appropriate for him.

61 – And I asked
him about a man whose garment came in contact with a pig, and he remembered while he was in his salat?

He said: So he is
to let it pass if he has entered into his salat and there is no harm. And if he has not entered into his salat,
then he is to sprinkle what it had come in contact with from his garment,
unless there is a trace in it, then he is to wash it.

and a shirt?

64 – And I asked
him about a man who has a nosebleed so he blows his nose and some of that
becomes blood, a little bit of drops, and it falls to his vessel. Is it appropriate for him to do wudu from it?

He said: If it is
not something that is clearly seen in the water, then there is no harm, and if
it is something that is clear, then wudu is not done from it.

78 – And I asked
him about (doing trade in) animals by animals omitting (animals) and adding
dirhams, paying in cash by the dirhams and delaying the animals, is it
appropriate?

He said: When they
(both) accept then there is no harm.

على وصفاء ويضمن عند ذلك ، أيصلح ؟

قال : « إذا سمى خماسياً أو رباعياً أو غيره فلا
بأس » .

79 – And I asked
him about the man who does mukataba with his slave upon servants, and make
guarantee with that, is it appropriate?
(mukataba is a contract of manumission wherein the slave agrees to pay a
sum to the master during a specific time period in exchange for freedom)

He said: If he
names fivefold or fourfold or other than it, then there is no harm.

him about a man who rented out a house for ten dirhams. So a tailor or someone else came to him and
said "I will work in it and the wage is between me and you. Whatever I profit, then it is for me and
you." So he profitted more than the rent
of the house. Is that lawful for him?

95 – I asked him
about the man who sold a piece of merchandise on credit (or: payment at an
appointed time). So the term (for payment) as well as the sale were lawful near
its owner. Then he gave him the thing (piece of merchandise). So he said "Sell me that which you purchased from me and lower it for me by such and such. So I will exact (deduct) the amount which is against you from my wealth." Is
that lawful?

He said: If they (both) accept, then there is no harm.
